Sauced and Confused (Lost Remix)

[Lost in the Sauce]

How aggressive are they? You don’t think he can be in a 4’ 90 for long do you? Just spit ballin. I’ve chosen not to have tangs in my tank atm but…

How aggressive is, to me, an unanswerable question. They are sturgeonfish but every one has their own personality. Mine shows no aggression at all.

Mine is in the don't start no crap, won't be no crap world.


They don't start out big. A smaller model could definitely live in a 4' tank for a while but not a long time. I've seen a bunch of 2-3" available at shops around me.

250gallons And my nutrients are zero.

6 ft tank

4 chromis, 1 Anthias, 1 clown, 1 tomini, 1 purple tang, 1 blue hippo, 1 fox face, 1 flame angel ,1 cleaner shrimp, 10000 snails, 1 urchin

Need a lot more fish

You got the room! Totally get one! I’m sure he would look lovely and you would enjoy it.

Have you ever thought of getting like a Rhomboidalis? Or like a Foxface?

Rhomboidalis wrasse is $450 why

 

[Petcrazyson]

Rhomboidalis wrasse is $450 why

It is on the higher side I suppose.

You think the odds are higher for a CBB if there is no tangs?

Yes. Copper bands generally eat slowly. Tang's eat quickly.

CBB are major pod hunters and are constantly hunting. I don't want them to rely on that for the majority of their nutrition.

It's as much as the purple tang I got

Orange shoulder and Cori's is in consideration.

If I do roll the dice then it would be the one of biggest fish in the tank along side the Angel eventually and the Bandit or Regal I want.

Any advice if I add one?

Have your pod population on point from day one including phyto dosing at least twice a week.

QT it. Many (most) CBB get lymphocyst outbreaks under stress. Sometimes they are limited to the fins but can often move to the mouth as well making it harder to eat. They deal just fine with copper so you're quarantine is both ensuring it is healthy, ensuring it understands what and how we feed, and is able to keep up once in the tank.

Mysis and brine shrimp seem to be the easiest to get them eating. Once they are eating, FEED THEM. You want a fat fish moving into the tank.

Should I dose Prazi or no?

 

[Nate Chalk]

Can we see more of her beautifulness? :grinning-squinting-face:

Something I did a few times whilst QT was Kanaplex. Yes for the CBB?

I don't use antibiotics or antifungals in qt unless there's a reason to. Kanaplex is a combo of those two. I keep it on hand, but have only needed it once

Thats a Chocolate Tang also known as a Mimic Tang, that one has the adult coloring as the juvenile is all yellow but with bright blue highlights on its face giving it the name Lemon Peel Tang. And yes Lost I do believe it’s on the right this time lol.

Still need a Cori's wrasse to get a yellow fish. Really want a yellow tang but I have a purple and idk bout that. Or maybe both :))

Yes love our yellow coris wrasse, gets along with our female leopard. They share the sand bed in the back corner of the 300. We also have 11 clowns, 8 orange, 1 mocha and two black storms, all get along now...trying to get a totally white one...

Love CBB but we have feather dusters and they would be a snack for the CBB. so we do not have one...
